Here, the valve 115 is provided in the extract discharging unit 113, and the opening and closing control is performed by the controller 600.
The extractor inner cylinder 120 is a cylindrical shape with an open top, and has a plurality of hot water inlet and outlet holes 122 in the lower surface thereof, and a cover 124 covering the upper end opening of the inner cylinder.
The extractor heating device 130 is installed below the outer drum 110 for heating the outer drum 110. The heating device 130 is configured to be controlled by a controller 600.
The inside of the extractor inner cylinder 120 can contain granular materials such as various medicines, and the inside of the extractor outer cylinder 110 is configured to be filled with water for hot water extraction of the granular materials. At this time, since the extractor inner drum 120 and the extractor outer drum 110 are communicated through the hot water inlet and outlet holes 122, the water filling the extractor outer drum 110 also fills the extractor inner drum 120 at the same water level.
In this way, the granular material is placed in the inner extractor cylinder 120, and the outer extractor cylinder 110 is filled with water to perform hot water extraction, so that the inner extractor cylinder 120 has a form in which the granular material is immersed in water.
In this state, when the extractor heating device 130 drives heat to heat the bottom surface of the extractor outer cylinder 110, the water inside is heated to generate hot water, which extracts active ingredients from the granular material contained in the inner cylinder 120 according to a vortex generated by convection of a convection phenomenon to generate a liquid extract.
The extractor heating device 130 is installed at the bottom center of the extractor outer cylindrical housing 110 such that the bottom center of the extractor outer cylindrical housing 110 is heated to a higher temperature than the peripheral portion, and thus the water contained in the extractor outer cylindrical housing 110 is extracted from the extractor, and since the water of the inner center portion of the outer cylindrical housing 110 is heated more than the water of the inner edge, the water of the inner center portion of the extractor outer cylindrical housing 110 is convected upward such that the water level of the extractor inner cylindrical housing 120 is higher than the water level of the extractor outer cylindrical housing 110. As the extractor heating means 130 stops operating, the temperature of the water is lowered and the convection phenomenon is weakened, and the water level of the extractor outer tub 110 and the water level of the extractor inner tub 120 are the same again.
Thus, as the extractor heating means 130 is turned on, water is heated, the temperature rises, the water level in the extractor inner cylinder 120 rises to be higher than that in the outer cylinder 110, and then the extractor heating means 130 is stopped, and as the temperature falls, the water level in the extractor inner cylinder 120 falls to be the same as that in the extractor outer cylinder 110, and by repeating this process, the extraction rate of the effective components of the particulate material can be improved.
